Instructions

  • Prepare the apples, peel, quarter, core, finely slice horizontally and soak in the juice of 1 lemon
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) gas 4
  • Make sure you have the apples and lemon juice ready for the recipe.
  • Place the caster (superfine) sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar has dissolved. increase the heat to high and bring to the boil.
  • Let the sugar syrup caramelize into pale golden brown colour but remove the caramel from the heat as soon as it starts to get dark or it will taste bitter.
  • Immediately pour in the cider and beware of spluttering caramel.
  • Set aside while you cook the apples.
  • Heat the muscovado sugar and margarine in a saucepan until they melt and dissolve together.
  • Add the apples and cook over medium heat until the apples are nearly soft and coated with the sauce.
  • As soon as most of the sauce has evaporated, stir in all the cider caramel.
  • Divide the mixture between the 6 prepared ramekins, then set them aside while you prepare the sponge.
  • Sift the dry ingredients and spices into a large bowl. in another bowl, mix the honey, egg, cider, oil and lemon zest.
  • Stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture and immediately spoon it onto the caramelized apples in each ramekin.
  • Gently smooth over the top and bake in the oven for 25 - 30 minutes, or until the sponge is golden and firm.
  • Let the sponges cool just enough for you to be able to hold the ramekins in a dry cloth.
  • Ease the sponge away from the sides of the dish with a sharp knife, then turn each one onto a warm plate and serve immediately with Dairy free vanilla ice-cream or Dairy free yogurt.
